Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil

"Starts as a jelly, ends as an oil. Basically the main character of your makeup bag."
Our take

$24 Price at Rare Beauty, checked Oct 2026.

The short answer

Rare Beauty's Soft Pinch Tinted Lip Oil is a jelly that turns into a lightweight tinted oil on contact. It's for people who want shine and a wash of color without stickiness. At $24, it's a fair price for a daily lip product you'll actually reach for.

Our Take

Why it made the edit.

Why we love it: The jelly-to-oil texture is fun and comfortable, and it's not sticky. One swipe gives a sheer wash, and layering builds a juicier pop.
Skip it if: You want long-wearing, transfer-proof lip color.
The catch: It's an oil, so expect to reapply after eating or drinking. It's also only 3 mL.
